Psychedelic rock

Psychedelic rock is a genre of rock often (but not always) inspired or influenced by psychedelic (psychotropic) drugs, especially LSD and marijuana. The musical style often incorporates flowing, hypnotic rhythms and use of guitar and vocal effects, most notably the Wah-Wah pedal which is either used to make a fast, funky but psychedelic sound or used slowly to create a psychedelic wave of guitar sound.
